I was just looking for the thread I'd started about it to say that I'm now back in after 3 months.

It's 7 am and GOOG has broken its top, now at 3056, up nearly 300, all after market... impressive!

True, the friend who kept hassling me to buy Tesla had bought several thousand shares at $50 in 2018 (I think). He is a very happy guy today...

that's why my post #7 ;)

After market is up nearly 300 on the news, now close to GOOG high of 3037. Frustratingly I cannot access pre market until 8:00 am and will miss out on a likely frenzy... At this point looking at a quick momentum trade. GOOG isn't cheap!

Yeah, now the challenge is not losing it all! 2021 was really tough for me, down consistently all year but managed to break even 3 weeks before the end of year. Except I got greedy and loaded on MSTR and CMG for a multi days trade that turned into a substantial loss that I'm going to spend...

Circumstances pushed me to act. When successful, I look like a star. When it fails, I look incompetent. Life is funny that way.

America has so many of these crackpots... Advise them to stop watching end of world movies and series. Their capacity to absorbe and laugh is nil.

Up until about 15 years ago I always rented, primarily because I could rent a nicer property than I could buy. Then came the 2008 crash and the situation flipped so we bought a house in 2009, at the bottom of the market, that we sold in 2019 when values had nearly doubled. Less than a year...

Very cool. The world needs more people like this guy. He found the perfect niche to challenge his skills and make money.

It reminds me of Mao's agricultural revolution, where data gatherers were so afraid of getting shot that production yields were always high while a million people starved to death. There is no dissent in dictatorships.Things might have evolved a bit, but data today still reflects what government...

Ok then... China’s economic condition is entirely manipulated by the CCP. The economic data you read is reviewed and modified to meet political economic agenda and is as accurate as their covid count. When there's no money, there's suddenly money and whatever hardship on the people is theirs to...

I tell her to stop moving :wtf:

LoL, China’s economic conditions are tightly intertwined with political conditions. Xi is the ultimate person responsible for the country's health at a time of intense economic and political turmoil. Please forgive me if I care more about Xi's downfall to prevent war than his ability to...

Foremost it's undefined.

That may be the leverage the Communist party needs to denounce and remove Xi if the party decides that a military takeover of Taiwan is not in the party's best interest at this time. Popular support for the Communist party in China isn't so clear despite its enormous success taking the country...

Plenty of stupid people calling others stupid.

Very wrong goal. Your goal should only be to beat a top performing fund readily available in the market or else your money should be in there. So I look forward to your end of year results!

The one reason I believe in cryptos is because the negative arguments I hear are very similar to those made against Tesla and TSLA allowed me to retire at 57.

Lol.. we're only 28 days in 2022 and some are already sneering at the world's biggest banks and investment firms? o_O this is going to make year-end "so what did you say?" fun...
